EltaMD UV Shield SPF 45 is a lightweight, oil-free, daily sunscreen that glides across the skin and is absorbed quickly. The EltaMD UV Shield is non-comedogenic and safe for the most sensitive skin; including oily or acne prone skin. It can be used for rosacea type skin and in conjunction with photosensitizing medications.
EltaMD UV Shield uses 9% transparent micronized zinc oxide to provide very strong protection from UVA (the aging rays, thought to be a major cause of early wrinkles and melanoma) and it delivers an SPF 45 for UVB (the burning rays) protection.
